My name is Katherine Rogers and I live in a cage. At least, that’s what I call it. The house and garden my mother wants to keep me in until I decide that I’m going to be reasonable. Katherine has everything a young woman could hope for in 1849 Scotland, except the freedom to make her own choices. The last thing she wants to do is to get married...and then she meets James Spenser. Can there be any future together for the outspoken daughter of a railway owner and the charming young man working on the project?
